Urethral Catheter Self-Cath® Straight Tip / Soft Uncoated PVC 10 Fr – 16 Inch | 110

The Self-Cath® Straight Tip Soft Uncoated PVC Urethral Catheter, 10 Fr., 16 Inch is a sterile, single-use intermittent catheter designed to offer comfort, safety, and reliable performance for patients requiring bladder management. Manufactured by Coloplast, a leader in urological care, the Self-Cath® line is trusted worldwide for its patient-focused design and quality.

This catheter features a straight tip and a soft, flexible PVC body, making it especially suited for patients with sensitive urethras or those who experience discomfort with firmer catheters. The 10 French (Fr) diameter is narrower than standard sizes, making it ideal for pediatric patients, adolescents, or adults with smaller or more sensitive urethral passages. At 16 inches in length, it provides adequate reach for both male and female catheterization, ensuring complete bladder drainage.

Since it is uncoated, a sterile lubricant must be applied before use. This allows patients and caregivers to choose the amount and type of lubricant for a more personalized and comfortable catheterization experience. The polished drainage eyelets make insertion smoother and reduce the risk of irritation or urethral trauma.

Key Features:

• Straight Tip: Simplifies insertion for standard intermittent catheterization.

• 10 Fr. Diameter: Narrow size suitable for pediatric and sensitive adult patients.

• 16-Inch Length: Standard length designed for both male and female use.
